Sleeping for the Fasting Person

Question
Does sleeping during Ramadan reduce the reward of the fasting person?
Answer
I say, and with God's help: There is no harm in sleeping while fasting as long as it does not neglect the duties. However, if the faster continues to sleep for most of the day, it is a form of negligence, especially in the month of Ramadan, a blessed time that a Muslim should benefit from by increasing the reading of the Quran, worship, and remembrance. And God knows best.
